We are all very sad to lose such a wonderful Uncle. He was so funny and had the best sence of humor. No matter what type of day you had he was always able to make you laugh. Uncle JR. was a man you could always count on. Prayers are with you Aunt Ann , Bobby, Greg, and Jimmy. We Love You ALL.

My favortie memory of Jr. was when he told me about losing the best $50 bucks ever betting against my Daddy in a Ford at the old Jacksonville Speedway. That was how he got to know my Daddy Sam Sommers. He will be sadly missed by all that knew him. With deepest sympathy Chris Sommers & Family

O'Quinn family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Jr. was loved and respected by all whose lives he touched. He will be missed by so many. He was a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. We always enjoyed the ball games watching Lane play. Jr. beamed over the grandchildren. He left many behind who mourn his passing, but there is an angel watching over the whole group.
May he rest in Peace.
